Brief Introduction

Salicin is a naturally occurring compound found in the bark of several species of trees, primarily North American in origin, that are from the willow, poplar, and aspen families. White willow, from whose Latin name, Salix alba, the term salicin is derived, is the most well known source of this compound, but it is found in a number of other trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants as well being synthesized commercially. It is a member of the glucoside family of chemicals and is used as an analgesic and antipyretic. Salicin is used as a precursor for the synthesis of salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid, commonly known as aspirin.

A colorless, crystalline solid in its pure form, salicin has the chemical formula C13H18O7. Part of its chemical structure is equivalent to the sugar glucose, meaning it is classified as a glucoside. It is soluble, but not strongly so, in water and alcolhol. Salicin has a bitter taste and is a natural analgesic and antipyretic, or fever reducer. In large quantities, it can be toxic, and overdoses may lead to liver and kidney damage. In its raw form, it may be mildly irritating to skin, respiratory organs, and eyes.

Our body can live with an acceptable level of toxicity without much harm done. When the threshold of toxicity is exceeded, problems will arise, ranging from a minor skin rash to a serious one like cancer. However, it’s difficult to know where the threshold is until something happens.

Toxic substances are absorbed into our body through the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the general environment we are exposed to everyday. Most toxins are not fatal because the amounts absorbed are usually small. Furthermore, our body is constantly cleansing them out to keep the accumulation in check.

The prescription given here is not strong enough to cure serious diseases like cancer all by itself. Moreover, no Chinese herbs are substance specific, that is, they are not known to be able to eliminate specific toxins or chemicals from the body. However, this prescription is good for regular use as a general cleansing treatment, or as a way to keep the toxicity level in the body well below threshold.
